I guess she's alright. I don't really like the format of her lectures but the material is relevant. Exam was a little tricky, but fair overall.

the hottest prof I ever had. yummy!

She is a great teacher, she explains everything with clarity and makes the readings actually make sense. The exam was a little difficult, but overall I have learned a lot and really enjoy the class

awesome prof! encourages her students to think and speak freely, while listening to everyone. One of the best profs I've had @ Carleton!!

prof moore is awesome! she opened my mind and my eyes, taught me about so many injustices i never reAlized occurred. altho the class was at 8 30, i wouldnt have missed it for anything

I don't know who posted that this prof opened their eyes, i found just the opposite. the whole point of the course was to teach everyone to think in her little critical legal box. if you weren't poor, female, or a GLBT, you weren't worth talking about. ps, as an aside she taught some law

she raises relevant issues and encourages everyone to think critically.

shes great. really easy to approach and loves what shes talking about. really easy and interesting course

I disagree with the people who hate this class. She is a great prof, easy to understand, gives advice on the assignments and is always available for her students. I have not had another prof who have set aside a whole class to talk about the assignment. She didnt even had to do that.

Prof Moore is the reason that hot chillies were created in this silly website. Damn she's hot! Meow.

She has passion about what she teaches and extensive knowledge, which makes the class interesting and easier to understand/follow

JOKE CLASS..assignments are easy...never showed up to class and got a B...JUST PAY SOMEONE FOR THEIR NOTES!!!..there is nothing to be learned in first year courses cause they jump all over the place and the info leaves your head the instant you leave the class. the years after is when it becomes interesting.

AMAZING PROF! Her lectures were very interesting. This class is nothing like a first year law class, it's more about law and society. Therefore LESS BORING! This class is very easy but if you go to the lectures it can also be very interesting!

Prof. Moore is a good teacher but it's Blanca my T.A. for LAWS1000 that I have a problem with. She gave me a D on my first paper and didn't include any comments whatsoever to offer guidance on where I went wrong. At least she didn't give me an F and neglect to do that, like she did to at least 5 other students I spoke to. WTF is up with that?!

Assignments are interesting. Class is an intro class so don't expect to learn much, but if you go to class it is really interesting. She brings in guest speakers and teachs with movies on various different cases that you will see later in law if you continue. Great intro to it all.

I dono what u ppl are talking about. Professor Moore is awesome! She's the most interesting Prof I have and her lectures are always great. She's even made me consider being a professor myself. I got an A- in the class but I'm also a genious!!! :)

She was by far one of my favourite profs this year. She made the transition from high school to university so easy to deal with. Her lectures are always interesting and I actually feel as if I have learned something coming out of her class.

Great prof. Great class

Great proff. Definitly got my moneys worth! Exactly what you should expect from a third year course, definitly not a bird course. If you put the effort and thought into the assignments and not just random crap that you wriote last minute, your grade should be atleast half decent.

very thorough and helpful.

She is a pretty good prof. Her lectures were well organized and outlined, and the assignments were pretty straight forward. TA groups are useless, but that is not her fault...Her exams are pretty easy (she basically TELLS you what exactly to study). The only thing is that I found her readings/case selections kind of biased (homosexual/women rights)

She was my best prof first year. The way she was able to connect actual cases to basic concepts really helped me to understand. The exam was so easy and she went through the entire exam with us explaining everything we would have to know to get a good grade. Great class!

final exam worth 30% was 60 multiple choice... very straight forward and easy... not that interested in law.. but easy with her teaching

This prof is great. I had her two years ago in first year, and I keep looking to have her again. She shows great movies and keeps you interested. I had her at 8:30 on wed, and when I didn't make to most of my afternoon classes because I was sleeping, I never missed one of hers. She keeps everything interesting!

Great prof, uses important issues to draw understanding among the class concepts

GREAT! I have never seen any class like this.

Relates well with the students.

alright...i stongly suggest getting into one of her classes if you can. she clearly breaks down the information that you need to know and how about going to get that information. She is a wicked teacher. her classes are important to go to because the stuff she discusses is from the textbook but she puts in into simpler terms. She deserves a raise!

Great class. Lectures are interesting and relevent. Tried not to miss any. She always tries to engage the class in the lectures. Very approachable and funny. Assignments are pretty easy.

Awesome prof! Had a lot of helpful insight for us. Although the course was a refresher for anyone who took high school law, she managed to make it interesting. And for the record, she does not choose her TA's, they are assigned to her by the department.

Professor Moore is a wonderful professor. Her obvious passion for her discipline, wry sense of humour, and willingness to engage the class in discussion make her course one of the most enjoyable you'll ever take. Throw in her sinfully easy exams, cakewalk assignments, and eye-opening lectures... highly, highly recommended.

Professor Moore is refreshing, lively and motivating. She is a gem in the sense that she goes outside of the bubble of simply reading from some book. She challenges the mind and truly provides one with a learning experience with a touch of fun. Would love to take her classes again!

Very engaging and great at getting discussions started even in a massive class. Leaves assignments broad so you can do what you want with them. REALLY prepares you for the exams.

Really awesome first year prof! Easy to understand, and has very helpful TA's. It was one of the only law classes in first year that I didn't sleep through in the mornings! Great exam prep for the first exam, but the final was a little more than I expected (although multiple choice)...no real need to keep up with all the readings

she's fair and interesting and smart.

shes really good

Fairly easy class, you can get a good mark just by watching the lectures and following her exam review. Textbooks are not required. As stated before, her far-left, anti-capitalist political stances are EXTREMELY annoying... to a certain audience.

Very easy class.... Go to class listen. Make sure you study EVERYTHING that she says on her exam review!!!!! You will do well!!! DON'T BUY TEXTBOOKS!!!! She talks about readings in class.... so just pay attention and take notes!!!!! PASS Class is offered too... and it really helps expecially if you like to miss class!!!! :)

The lectures are sometimes a bit tedious, especially the ones at the beginning of the year, but she's really interesting to listen to and pretty knowledgeable. She assigned a lot of readings compared to my other first year courses, but most were relevant. Her exam review is so helpful, though. You literally just have to fill in the blanks.

Really knows her stuff and gives you everything you need to know in lectures. Her exam reviews are amazing if you take the time to use them and she gives so much relevant info that the texts are really just for background reading and are not even really needed. By far my favourite first year course. And she's fun too :)

I kind of laugh when people give Dawn a bad rating for focusing on gays, women, and aboriginals. These are perhaps the MOST relevant issues in canadian law TODAY. If you don't like a relevant, insightful class then don't take this one. Dawn knows what she's talking about, very intelligent prof. The exam was a bit harder than i expected though.

Very interesting, knowledgable, and easy to understand. Her "no-fail" exam reviews were absolutely fantastic, and the assignments helped get me into the material. Her guest lecturers were also well worth listening to.

Very interesting and her exam reviews were the exam!

Very left wing professor as a warning. I loved her first year class it was the reason I majored in law. She's very interesting, easy to talk to, picks good guest lecturers for her class.

Very excited to take the course, and dropped it within the second week. It's slow, slightly boring, and does nothing to expand on idea's already established in first-third year. You find yourself stuck in a class that doesn't do much to expand your thoughts. I read most of the material she assigned already so, it wasn't challenging to me.

My mid term paper received a low mark. I then worked hard on my final paper and I end up with an A for that paper and it is one of my best undergraduate papers with an enlighten and strong conclusion and I can continue to talk knowledgeably on the topic. She also advised me wisely where to take my career for the best salary. I am still in touch.

This class was very interesting and Professor Moore has a lot of experience and interesting history in the field. She assigned "journals" which are roughly 20 pages on the readings each week, very long and takes up a lot of time but easily graded. She brought in interesting guest lecturers and classes never surpassed 2 hours.

Great class.

Dawn is a very passionate and inspiring professor. She knows her material and topics. Very intelligent and caring. However, a very hard marker. You need to follow exactly her requirements for the assignment, no BS. Pray that you get the TA as a marker. Other than that, she's very open.

Dawn's awesome. She knows what she's talking about & backs up her claims. I will say she is an extremely tough grader, I 'm typically an A/A+ student & Dawn's class lowered my average a lot which is unfortunate because I loved the class & felt like my work was strong. I usually got 75-80% on assignments & the feedback was always unexpected/specific

Take a class with her, any class with her, you will not be disappointed. She is absolutely amazing, smart, brings different perspectives. Very critical and analytical. She embodies what university should be about. If you are in crim/law or soc and/or humr I would greatly recommend her classes. You will leave class every day with renewed passion!

Professor Moore's class Punishment and the Law was great! Learned more about the prison system than I expected. Professor Moore was super understanding during covid and was flexible with due dates. The course was lecture heavy and the slides don't give much detail so attending the lectures is a MUST to pass. Assignments (3 journals) aren't bad.

This class is not easy but you learn so much and by the end, you might even change your view on the prison system. She doesnt record lectures and its all in real time on zoom. Its a lot of reading and writing but the content is very interesting. She brings up really good points in every class and its worth taking

The lectures weren't too bad, and the weekly readings matched the lecture material perfectly. The journal assignments were pretty vague, but once you get the hang of them they're relatively easy. Prof Moore is very passionate about her work and it shows in the lectures. Overall her class was great and would recommend people to take it!

Not sure why there are so many negative reviews, perhaps it is because they are at the undergraduate level. At the MA level, Dr. Moore is one of the most engaging and intelligent professors I have ever had. I highly recommend this course to anyone who can take it. Be prepared to voice your opinions!

Dawn Moore is a phenomenal professor and, in my opinion, any hate she's getting is purely defamation of character because she was super clear about her expectations with us from the jump. Most people from the fall term did really well; these negative reviews were written by a few salty students who couldn't appreciate Dawn's style of teaching tbh.

I like Dawn a lot but I think her class in Fall 2023 semester fell short because she's involved in a project outside of Carleton that requires a lot of her time and energy. Amazing prof, interesting lectures but extremely inaccessible outside of class, doesn't answer emails + moved her in-person classes online, which took away from the experience
